Drop shadow feature request

Hi Team,

 

I want to request a drop shadow feature for the border of graphs.  Ideally, it would allow for:

* color of shadow

* size of shadow

* opacity of shadow
* angle of shadow
* adapt to the shape of the graph's corners (square or rounded)

This option would allow stunning visuals without having to:

* Bake the shadow into custom backgrounds

* Update the backgrounds when a graph needs repositioning

* Using a solid shape behind a graph is not a great solution - users can select it, bring it forward and obscure the visuals

 

Thank you,
